The Brown Hotel offers budget-friendly conference rates when you indicate that you want the “Watson Conference Rate.” Room rates are guaranteed through Sept. 14, 2014.

To access the rooms reserved for our conference at the Brown Hotel, you must use the link provided below. A regular search on the hotel's website will not display the conference block and may show mistakenly that there are no vacancies.

Conference buses will run continuously from the University of Louisville to theBrown Hotel.

The closing session ends at 12:30 on Oct. 18th. For those of you planning to leave Louisville that day, there will be a conference shuttle bus back to the conference hotels at the close of the session. A cab ride from the University of Louisville to the airport takes approximately fifteen minutes. Those planning to stay longer can find information on the Louisville area at "Beautiful Louisville."

Conference Parking

Thursday and Friday

Free shuttles will run from the Brown Hotel to campus. For those who wish to drive to campus, very limited parking might be available at the Speed Museum garage for $6 daily (cash only) and the Floyd Street garage for $8 daily (cash or credit). Because this is homecoming weekend, we encourage you to park in a garage downtown and take the shuttle from the Brown Hotel.

Saturday

Free conference parking is available any where on campus on Saturday. We recommend the "Red" lot next to the College of Business for Saturday parking. There is no campus shuttle available on the weekend.
